Hernia mesh classification

1.Non-Absorbable Meshes:

These meshes, including polypropylene (PP) mesh, expanded polytetrafluoroethylene (ePTFE) mesh, and polyester mesh, are designed to remain permanently within the body. They are not absorbed by the body tissues and coexist with them for an extended period.

2.Absorbable Meshes:

Materials such as polyglycolic acid (PGA) mesh and polylactic-co-glycolic acid (PLGA) mesh are categorized as absorbable meshes. They are gradually absorbed by the body tissues over time, typically within three to six months.

3.Composite Meshes:

Composite meshes are a combination of different materials, often incorporating both synthetic and biological components. Examples include meshes made from a combination of PP and ePTFE, or plant-derived materials with polymeric additives.


Potential risks:

Like any medical device or surgical procedure, there are potential risks and complications associated with hernia mesh repair. These may include:

  1. Infection: Although rare, infection can occur at the site of mesh placement. Proper surgical technique, antibiotic use, and post-operative care can help minimize this risk.

  2. Rejection or Intolerance: While the body generally accepts hernia mesh, some individuals may experience an adverse reaction or rejection of the foreign material. This is uncommon but can occur.

  3. Chronic Pain or Discomfort: A small percentage of patients may experience persistent pain or discomfort in the area where the mesh was placed. This can be challenging to manage and may require additional treatment.

To ensure the safety of hernia mesh repair, it is essential to work with a qualified and experienced surgeon who is familiar with the latest techniques and mesh materials. Additionally, patients should follow all post-operative instructions and attend any recommended follow-up appointments to monitor their progress and address any potential complications promptly.
